2.4 Hitching Up2.4.1 Hitching up a Tractorto the Box Scraper /Preparing for Transport
When hitching-up the machine,ensure that no-one is between thetractor and the machine.
Tractor Oil Flow Adjustment:As a general rule the tractor oil flowrate should be set in the lowestsetting before starting. This can thenbe increased to allow the desiredrate of operation as applicable. Thiswill minimise excessive oil flow andconsequent power usage and heatgeneration.
1. Ensure the tractor hydraulics aredepressurised and in the locked orclosed (not float) setting.
2. Couple the hydraulic hoses to the tractorensuring that the two lift axle cylinderhoses (red) are together.
3. Connect the tractor to the drawbarshackle.
4. Carefully operate the hydraulics to lift theBox Scraper on the road transportwheels and add in the shims for roadtransport.
2. Transportation / Installation
2.4.2 Changing to WorkPosition1. Raise the machine using the lift axle and
remove the transport shims.
2. Add in the required amount of shims forwork.
3. Lower the machine into work.
2.5 When driving on theroadWhen driving on the road the machine mustbe converted to the transportation position.
When driving on the road, raise themachine completely to prevent theworking elements dragging on theground.
2.6 Parking the machineIn order to avoid damage as a result ofmoisture, the machine should be parked, ifpossible, indoors or under cover.
When manoeuvring the machine,pay attention to your surroundings.Ensure that nobody is in themanoeuvring area (watch forchildren!).
With the machine in the transport position:• Park the machine on level and solid ground.• Raise the machine and remove shims fromthe lift axle cylinder.• Lower the machine to the ground, ensuringthat it is stable.• Remove the drawbar pin and drive forwardslowly until hitch is clear of tractor drawbar.• Switch off the tractor.• Disconnect hydraulic lines from the tractor.

4.8 ChecksThe working quality depends on theadjustments and checks made prior to andduring work, as well as on regular servicingand maintenance of the machine.
Before beginning work it is thereforeimportant to carry out any necessary servicingand to lubricate the machine as required.
Checks prior to, and duringwork:• Is the machine correctly hitched up and thecoupling device locked?• Have the hydraulic lines been connectedaccording to the colour coding?• Is the machine in a level operating positionand the working depth set correctly?
Working Elements• Are the elements of the machine in aserviceable condition?
4.7 Parking the machineIn order to avoid damage as a result ofmoisture, the machine should be parked, ifpossible, indoors or under cover.
When manoeuvring the machine,pay attention to your surroundings.Ensure that nobody is in themanoeuvring area (watch forchildren!).
With the machine in the transport position:• Park the machine on level and solid ground.• Raise the machine and remove shims fromthe lift axle cylinder.• Lower the machine to the ground, ensuringthat it is stable.• Remove the drawbar pin and drive forwardslowly until hitch is clear of tractor drawbar.• Switch off the tractor.• Disconnect hydraulic lines from the tractor.
4. Adjustment / Operation
4.6 Work InstructionsDriving speedIn work, the Box Scraper can be driven atspeeds of up to 6 km/h.
This depends on the field conditions (type ofsoil, levelness of field, etc.).
Drive more slowly if the conditions are difficult.
Turning:Before turning, the scraper bowlshould be eased out of work.Likewise, it should eased back intowork once the turn has beencompleted.

5. Servicing andMaintenance
Follow the safety instructions forservicing and maintenance.
5.1 ServicingYour machine has been designed andconstructed for maximum performance,operational efficiency and operatorfriendliness under a wide variety of operatingconditions.
Prior to delivery, your machine has beenchecked at the factory and by your authoriseddealer to ensure that you receive a machinein optimum condition.
To ensure trouble-free operation, itis important that servicing andmaintenance work is performed atthe recommended intervals.
5.2 CleaningIn order to ensure that the machine is alwaysin operating condition and to achieveoptimum performance, perform the cleaningand servicing work at regular intervals.
Avoid cleaning the bearings with a high-pressure hose or a direct water jet. Thehousing, screwed connections and ballbearings are not watertight.
5. Servicing and Maintenance
5.3 Hydraulics
A low oil flow should be used, i.e.,tractor tickover or low flowselected.
Exercise extreme care whenchecking the circuits, and under nocircumstances attempt to adjust orloosen fittings without priorreference to your authorised simbadealer, and detailed maintenanceinstructions.
5.4 Operator SupportIf you have a problem, please contact yourdealer. They will endeavour to solve anyproblems which may occur and provide youwith support at all times.
In order to enable your dealer to deal withproblems as quickly as possible, it helps ifyou can provide them with the following data:
• Customer Number• Name and Address• Machine Model• Serial Number of Machine• Date of Purchase and Operating Hours• Type of Problem
5.5 Maintenance IntervalsApart from daily maintenance, themaintenance intervals are based on thenumber of operating hours and time data.
Keep a record of your operating hours toensure that the specified maintenanceintervals are adhered to as closely aspossible.
Never use a machine that is due formaintenance. Ensure that all deficienciesfound during regular checks are remediedimmediately.
Avoid sharp-edged and pointedparts (blades, etc.) when workingon the machine.
Place the machine on suitablesupports when workingunderneath! Do not work under amachine which is not supported!
On a new machine tighten all nuts and boltsafter 5 hours work and again after 15 hours.This also applies to parts that have beenmoved or replaced. After the initial 15 hoursof work a once a week check should besufficient depending on daily work rates.
